Pros

Was an intern and converted to full-time. Painless interview experience during internship. Great work environment. Lots to learn. Saw lot of potential to grow and develop my skills. Work hours are bit more than other companies but again (team-specific and personal choice)

Cons

HR issues. Salary is less than other companies.
